NONE SO BLIND AS THOSE
WHO WILL NOT SEE.
In discussing the reason for U e
decline of the profit in cattle rais
ing in this country, the St. Louis
Republican, one of the leading
democratic papers in the country,
says: ' lhe last three years ha-se
been marked bv low prices for
cattle, and the ranch-owners of tl e
far West and the stock-feeders of
Missouri, Illinois, Kansas and
Texas are now complaining that
there is n) longer any j rofit in the
business. Indeed, except in cases
where it is favored by special con
ditions, it is attended by positive
loss. ' It seems to be the impres
sion that the combination of deal
ers and packers in Chicago has
brought this state of things about,
and that all the profits of the cattle
business are now monopolized by
this combination, which makes
both the buying price for cattle and
the Selling price for beef. This
may be part of the explanation of
low prices, but it is not the whole
of it. There is another agency at
work, and it is 6,000 miles ofl.
The development of a large cattle
trade between the Argentine Re
public of South America and the
markets of Europe in the last few
years is one of the features of that
republic's amazing progress, and it
bodes no good to our . stock-breeding
interest. When American
cattle are shipped abroad they are
shipped to bts sold in open market
for what they will bring, and ther?
they ehounter Argentine cattle,
which are raised at a smaller cost.
In plain words, we can not com
pete with that republic in breeding
sheep and cattle, and under the
present sympathetic relations-between
distant countries, the low
prices that prevail there are having
an effect here. The British have
lines of swift steamers plying
between their ports and Buenos
Ayres, and as they have the piiv
llege, which we have not, of buy
ing what they want in thecheapesl
market, fhey have begun to import
Argentine beet ana mutton in
place of American." Probably
the reason for the falling off in
price is truly sf. ;.tad in the above
extract, but witness the perverse
partizan blindness which instigates
the wail in the last sentence in
reference to buyii g in the cheapest
market,, when it is most emphatic
ally stated that our flocks and
herds cannot compete with those of
the Argentine Republic the very
thing that the above quoted paper
is arguing in favor ot lorcing our
people to do. The facts are that
even with our present tariff arti
cles not produced in ilus country
are not subject to the tariff, but
can be sought for unrestricted in
any market of the world. No one
denies but what our revenue and
excise laws should be amended,
but every honest citizen of the
country strenuously opposes any
amendment that is undertaken
solely to build up sectional advan
tage, for the purpose of enhancing
partisan power.
Is
nianv matters our methods;
might perhaps be benefitted by
studying the example set by
France. For instance in the mat
ter of counterfeit money, our
custom in this country is to saddle
the loss upon the innocent holder
of ths sp'irioui article, no matter
'how outrageously wronged he may
be by the operation. French
methods are' -different.. Recently
it was discovered by the holders of
-hundred-franc rote1? or the
of France that counter) eits
had been put in circulation of th.it
denomination. The, Journal of
Banking says that in two days the
fi
bank
of the counterfeit dcnominatioi.,
Tus modern Greeks neem to
reversing the order of the natural !
expansion of human action and r
greed. T!ie story comes that it
was r ither a queer defalcation that
occurred in the Greek treasury an;1,
it is said made a great sensation at
Athens. It seems that 5,000,00
fiancs in bank notes more than the
books ca-led for were discovered.
The chi'.;Z cashier was the one at
fault, lie insisted the treasury
was nearly empty, but the minis
te , Trice r.jis, thought that could
not be so, .is there had been large
collections for duties and taxes,
and instituted an inquiry with the
result mentioned. Most people
with errors in their accounts have
a deficiency instead of a surplus in
cash. The doubt in the minds of
the Greek officials probably is not
as to what Jwas found, but as to
how much was not found that
ought to have been.

and of those only one proved to be
counterfeit. The whole number of
counterfeits discovered was about
seventy. The French government,
a-5 it had the legal right to do in
order to allay the excitement and
stop the run on the bank, required
the latter to cash all notes pre
sented, whether counterfeit or not.
Tiie justice of this requirement is
founded on the principle that the
bank, exercising the privilege c
issuing notes, should either print
them in a manner rendering it im
possible to counterfeit them, orl
bear the loss that successful coun
terfeits inflict on an unsuspecting
public. In this matter the bank
andthe public are equally inno
cent of the crime, but it is a maxim
of law that where the loss must
fall upon one of two innocent par
ties, it should fall on the one by
whom the loss was rendered possi
ble. The bank by exercising the
privilege of issuing notes which
privilege is for its advantage
made it possible to impose on the
public by counterfeiting the notes,
and should therefore bear the loss.
This principle is too much lost
sight of in this country.
